Chapter 910: No Wonder It's Like This

Gathering together?

That’s great!

I heard that the head of this inspection team is the Vice President of the National Herbal Cuisine Research Association.

If we can establish this connection, who knows when it might come in handy in the future.

Liu Yunong laughed and replied, “Sure! I’m still in the provincial capital, so I’ll stay another day.”

Liu Shaoxian immediately said, “That’s great, but we have to rush to the airport by ten in the morning tomorrow. How about we meet in the morning?”

Liu Yunong had no objections: “Alright, I don’t have much to do here anyway, so I’ll come over early tomorrow.”

Liu Shaoxian chuckled, “Then it’s settled, see you in the morning… Ah! Xiaofu is calling me, Yunong, I’ll hang up first and call you back later.”

After saying that, without waiting for Liu Yunong to respond, the call was ended.

Liu Yunong raised her eyebrows slightly, it seems Liu Shaoxian is quite attentive to Fu Yu.

The wait lasted a full ten minutes.

Liu Shaoxian really did call Liu Yunong back.

Liu Shaoxian explained, “It so happens that this time during our inspection, the Vice President came along. I submitted the application to invite Fu Yu to join as a consultant. Yesterday, the Vice President organized a vote, and Fu Yu was unanimously approved. I thought I should arrange for Fu Yu to meet everyone before the inspection team leaves tomorrow.”

Liu Yunong pretended to be surprised and delighted: “Really? That’s great! Brother Liu, you’ve put a lot of effort into Xiaofu’s matter.”

Liu Shaoxian immediately said, “It’s not a lot of effort, I was just eager to invite him to join. Xiaofu’s cooking skills are truly impeccable, and he has his own unique insights into herbal cuisine. Especially with him making the news today, did you know? Oh my! This kid, he’s truly exemplary, extremely principled, very few young people like him these days…”

Liu Yunong had originally intended to inquire with Liu Shaoxian about his views on Fu Yu.

However, unexpectedly, Liu Shaoxian began talking about Fu Yu incessantly, without needing Liu Yunong to probe at all.

Though Liu Yunong knew that Liu Shaoxian admired Fu Yu, she didn’t expect his evaluation to be so high!

Listening to Liu Shaoxian’s endless praise for Fu Yu, she also felt very gratified and happy inside!

Indeed, he is the apprentice I chose, the man my sister has her eyes on.

Not bad…

Very good!

…

Liu Shaoxian was also in a very cheerful mood.

He felt a great sense of accomplishment as the matter he was concerned about was handled smoothly and successfully.

Moreover, the person he thought highly of was also recognized by others, which was a kind of indirect compliment to his judgment of character.

The inspection team rushed from the annual meeting of the Provincial Gourmet Association to the scene of the Provincial Traditional Chinese Medicine annual meeting in the afternoon.

After all, herbal cuisine originates from our country’s traditional diet and the culture of traditional Chinese medicine and dietary therapy.

So although the inspection team members are not formal experts in the field of traditional Chinese medicine, they are very knowledgeable about it, having unique insights into many diseases and pharmacology.

In past years, the Provincial Traditional Chinese Medicine annual meeting also invited members of the Provincial Herbal Cuisine Research Association to participate in the event.

However, today just happened to coincide with the visit of leaders from the national herbal cuisine headquarters, so they happily sent an invitation, making every effort to invite them over.

After the annual meeting, it was time for the customary dinner gathering.

Everyone moved to the banquet hall of the venue for the annual meeting to have a meal together.

At the dinner table, everyone had a substantial discussion on the medical topics from the annual meeting.

As they chatted, they talked about the year’s medical consultations at Bei’an Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

The aging population of Bei’an residents has led to a relatively high acceptance of traditional Chinese medical consultations.

Because of this, the number of invitations to the annual meeting was one more than for other places, hoping to gather together and share their consultation experiences.

The person in charge of the Provincial Traditional Chinese Medicine annual meeting is the Vice President of the Provincial Third Hospital, Song Xuanhe.

He was also aware of the consultation quota of Bei’an Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine this year, so when arranging the quota for the next group of participants, he specifically allocated three people.

But…

Only two people came from Bei’an.

Thinking of this, Song Xuanhe asked aloud, “Old Ren, why do you have one less person from your hospital attending the event this year?”

Participating in the Provincial Traditional Chinese Medicine annual meeting is a very honorable thing, especially for major local hospitals of traditional Chinese medicine, who are eager to compete for the quota.

Upon Dean Song’s inquiry, others turned to look at Ren Yuchang.

Ren Yuchang explained, “Actually, I had originally left the quota for a herbal cuisine master, but he had something come up last minute and couldn’t make it to the event.”

As soon as Song Xuanhe heard this, his face turned serious.

The quota allocated to Bei’an Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine was meant for outstanding practicing doctors to come to the provincial capital and exchange work experiences with their peers.

But Ren Yuchang gave the quota to a herbal cuisine master?

The most outrageous part is that this herbal cuisine master didn’t even come.

Thinking of this, Song Xuanhe frowned and asked sternly, “Dean Ren, don’t you have any excellent doctors at your hospital?”

Ren Yuchang was taken aback, seeing Song Xuanhe’s somber expression, he realized that he was unaware of the matter concerning Fu Yu, and remembered to explain.

He quickly found the news page on his phone and handed it over: “Dean Song, look, this is something that just happened today.”

Song Xuanhe took the phone, looking puzzled at the content displayed.

As he looked!

Song Xuanhe’s expression grew increasingly bewildered.

He thought Ren Yuchang was showing him some important news, but it turned out to be a report about a chef from a restaurant in Bei’an assisting police in solving a case involving zombie meat.
